Re: Gatsby! Ch.4

Gatsby and Nick are both detached from their settings in a way. In Nick's mind, he's supposedly "convincing" the reader to trust him, but he also does not show a biased side. Nick is very observant as well, so we see what happens in every sense. However, he still is a little stand-offish and does not seem to clique with some people. He seems like a wallflower in a sense.
Gatsby on the other hand seems very secretive and mysterious. At first, he's this cool guy but you start to wonder why he doesn't tell the full truth, and why he seems to rush over some things he says. Is he uncomfortable?
